"The Death of God left the Angels in a strange place." or "Across the Sky, came a Screaming"
Schroeder Mine, Germany 
14 tons of technological drawings 
(the invention of the V2 missile) including 
the invention of jet propulsion, the 
first guided ballistic missiles, gyroscope 
navigation and much more, were hidden 
in a mine under this location at the end 
of WW2. This technology was 30 years 
ahead of the rest of the world. The U.S. 
acquired this stash shortly before the 
Soviets gained control of the area.
Working in collaboration with Dr. Mathew L. Sisk 
(GIS Librarian, Center for Digital Scholarship, Hesburgh Libraries)  
in locating the buried mine; using a historic memoir by Deiter Huzel and geographic resources through Notre Dame’s Center for Digital Scholarship, we were able to locate relatively accurate latitude and 
longitude points for the mine. The mine was recently exhumed by a local group of 
amateur mining historians.
